    Had most of these, and sold Bigfoot for like 50 cents at a yard sale. Found my old Maskatron a couple of years back, but the clothes and rubber bits had all dry rotted in my parents’ attic. I console myself with the fact that I still have ALL of my original Star Wars toys!

    I am certainly "of a certain age", and The Six Million Dollar Man was certainly a part of my childhood and still is in my middle age/second childhood. I still have many of my old Bionic toys (Bigfoot included), and thanks to Ebay I now have a bunch more. My most recent addition is that super desk for the O.S.I. Headquarters play set. It still works.

    I was born in Jan. of 1971 so I'm just a little bit older than you Brian and I too got Bigfoot for Christmas in 1978. That's where our similarities about this figure end because he is the one 6 Million Dollar Man figure that hit me the hardest when it comes to fond memories. I got Bigfoot that year while my brother got Steve Austin. I was a huge fan of the character as well as the actual cryptid so the figure was among my favorites. A year or so later my Mom bought me another figure by Kenner that we found at a discount outlet named simply "The Store" in Kulpsville, PA. That figure was the Kenner Alien. The Alien and Bigfoot had so many brutal knock-down, drag-out fights that they are now a huge part of my most fondest of memories. Thanks for this video. It brought back many of those memories and a few others that I had forgotten about.

    This was among my favorite shows as a kid. My family growing up was relatively poor which meant, we were lucky if we got one thing from out wish list. Santa must have been doing well that year because, after going through the Christmas catalog and writing down a bunch of insane desires, I was shocked and, thrilled to find that, Santa had brought me a Steve Austin, Bionic Bigfoot, Venus Space probe and, a Shogun Godzilla. It was an epic Christmas indeed. I wish I still had that space probe!!!!

    I have to agree that Maskatron is my favorite, but Bionic Bigfoot comes in a pretty close second. Sure, the only reason my parents got him was because it was a clearance item, but the large Bigfoot figure was the kind of toy my little brother and I coveted, because it could do double duty as a Kaiju-sized menace for our three and three quarter inch scale figures, not entirely unlike the giant Frankenstein creatures from War of the Gargantuas. Many a Time Traveler figure was devoured or stomped under foot by Bionic Bigfoot.

    Favorite figure? Maskatron. Unfortunately, I no longer have my Maskatron. But it went to a good home. The home of Six Million Dollar Man writer (and co-creator of Twin Peaks) Mark Frost. About a decade ago I became friends with Mark through social media and when I happened to be in LA on business travel, I was able to meet with Mark for lunch. I knew that his first job was on the show and I also knew that he wrote the episode Return of the Robot Maker, which inspired the toy. So I made sure to pack my toy and when we met IRL. I gave him the figure. He never had one! He was very excited and especially at being able to take it home and play with it with his young son. I miss that figure but happy that Mark FINALLY got the toy that he inspired. It was a good day.

    The show was one of my top favorites as a kid. Constant play with friends and on my own with the action figures. My Bigfoot and Maskatron are still safely in storage. The Bigfoot lacked the features that I normally preferred as a kid, like articulation, but I liked the sculpting and the stiff arms and legs made sense to my kid brain for Bigfoot.

The less scarce is the version in this video which is the Bionic grip Steve. The more rare is the Bionic Bigfoot with the Biosonic, 3rd Version, of the Six Million Dollar man figure.

    I was never really a big fan of larger figures...too difficult to smuggle out of the house, so this line passed me by in the 70s, though I was always fascinated by it. I remember seeing the mobile repair bay and a few figures as a teenager at a school sale...the prices seemed absurdly high at the time, but nowadays would be a complete steal. Minor regret, as I would never have the space to keep them.

    Absolutely loved the Six Million Dollar Man toy range, also being around at the time, mainly for the Steve Austin figure, Maskatron (of course!) and oddly Oscar Goldman for his exploding briefcase! My only regret is that I never saw any trace of Bionic Bigfoot here in the UK, as after watching this I would have loved to have him. My best memory of the line as a child was finding by accident in my Mum's wardrobe before Christmas the Bionic Repair Station and Oscar Goldman tucked away at the back! Great times indeed... and a brilliant video once again, thank you. Finally, I can't wait to see your follow - up about the Venus "Death-Probe"; My friend and I re-watched it on video a few years ago, absolutely brilliant when it first appears! Fabulous!

    Loved these episodes above all the others, even over the Maskatron one (though had that resembled the toy, it probably would've won out). Yeah, wonderful tropes; good memories. Makes me realize all the tropes we took for granted now no longer around: bigfoot, quciksand, someone in a gorilla suit and so many more that every series, comedy or drama, realistic or fantastic. Last remnants of it were the McGyver episode and Harry and the Hendersons. My other favorites inspired by the bigfoot craze were "Bigfoot and Wildboy", Sasquatch the Marvel Canadian superhero and. We were sure any week Bixby's Hulk was gonna face him. What a shame, now that would've been a rating winner for sure.

    Cool video. I only had Steve, Jamie and the Death Probe as a kid. No Bigfoot for me. I did have that 12" Chewbacca however. For years he laid in the toy box at Granny's house with his right leg broken off. I think the Death Probe was probably my favorite though. I used it with all of my other toys in one way or another. Star Wars, G.I. Joe even He-Man eventually fought it.

    I was at the tail end of that watching reruns but still soon enough to appreciate Lee Majors, loved his cameo in Scrooged. :D Show holds up pretty good imo, started watching some episodes again to refresh my memory. I definitely think it inspired a lot of later cyborg films through the 80s and 90s especially in rentals of VHS movies. Probably the most unique sasquatch character ever conceived and Andre and Ted playing him is just gravy. Was looking up Cassidy because of his Star Trek work, sad to see how soon he passed away, all forms of giantism is really bad for your health when you look at each form of it. Tremendously cool toyline, don't often wish I was born sooner but Kenner made some toy gold with that one. Oh yeah that is a pricey item, he seems unrealistic for my budget. ;) Interesting to hear about the wookie connection, been watching TP's videos about fixing those big figures. I think both reasons cited for your lukewarm nostalgia for that toy are on the nose. As a design it's quite plain, likely suffering feature cutbacks for it's scale and lateness unfortunately.

    I actually preferred playing with Bigfoot over Maskatron. The eject switches on Maskatron's limbs were always a bit too sensitive for child me and his arms and attachments would always pop off before I wanted him too. Meanwhile, Bigfoot was big and tough so I could pretend some serious fighting between him and Steve Austin!

  • @pennygadget7328
    @pennygadget73282 жыл бұрын

    It's got a totally different feel from the other figures. The rest of the line screams "how much will our budget let us pack in?" while Bigfoot seems to say Minimum Viable Product, like they *had* to make it to satisfy a contractual agreement or make sure they capitalized on the character while they still could. It's unfortunate, but I'm hard-pressed to think of other features they could have put in....

  • @noahhenson1669

    I think the lack of limb and head articulation are what make this figure somewhat dull. At least Chewie had a gun you could get some kind of play-ability out of. You can only flip that damn panel open so many times before it loses its charm. My favorite bionic figure was a late-in-the-game Steve Austin, decked out in jeans and a white sport shirt, who had a karate chop action feature with his right arm, similar to Big Jim. He came complete with a stack of (plastic) wooden boards that you could endlessly make Steve chop, then reassemble them so he could do it all over again. Bricks, too, I think! Man, those were the days of endless imagination. Thanks for a great vid!!

For some reason I always loved female super hero's more. These are great to have as they were a big part of my childhood. Both TV show's were super popular and I was enthralled with the concept of Bionics. Thanks for this. It was great and brought back some wonderful memories. FANTASTIC review as usual.

It always got the most reaction from people. The latest WWE "Andre The Giant" bigfoot looks good and I ordered one. The others, however, I feel fell short of being either imposing or menacing enough. That's one thing about the seventies, toys were bold and menacing even if not completely accurate. And, of course, I had the Star Wars toys. There was absolutely nothing like the feeling of opening them for Christmas.

    As someone who did not grow up in the 1970's, and instead the late 80's early 90's I can tell you about a similar incident involving a toyline that had a desirable figure, that I don't have fond memories of. Mine was 1992's Krang's Android Body from the Ninja Turtles line. Such a core character and I so wanted to have a figure inside the body as seen every day on the cartoon but, by the time he saw release I just didn't care much for him. It was probably the least played with toy I had from Ninja Turtles and despite me loving him now, I don't have that nostalgic tie to it as I do maybe Muckman or Mutagen Man from that same toyline. My head like yours was into other things by 1992-1993 such as Batman in his many incarnations, X-Men, Power Rangers, and the Crash Dummies.

    Kenneth Johnson told me directly that Stan Lee wanted the Hulk to fight a “robot bear.” He said no because it would be too ridiculous and that the audience only gives so many “buys.”

    Like any child of the Seventies Bionic man figures were an important part of my life but I have no recollection of the Bigfoot figure which makes me wonder if it was ever released in the UK? Still as you say no comparison to Maskertron, the best toy ever.

    Now that I think about it, I wonder if Hasbro got the idea for the Intruders from this. Sure, they aren't robots but there are a few other similarities. Add in the fact Mike Powers is Hasbro's version of The Six Million Dollar Man.

    I don’t know if you’ve ever seen the duck dogers cartoon series . It essentially a buck rogers parody series . But there do a episode that is as close to you may ever get to buck rogers meets the six million dollar man . And big foot is in it . I forget the name of the episode. But I’m sure you’ll know when you see it as it basically starts if Daffy Duck doing Steve Austin’s origin .

    My favourite figure from this toyline has to be Maskatron, with Steve Austin a close second. It would have been wonderful to own a Bigfoot, back in the day, but, as with Chewbacca, the lack of articulation really annoys me! :)

    Hey Brian. I know it says Sold Out on the site but do you by any chance have any more Brick Mantooth figures left that you would sell? Mine went missing when we moved and I miss the big lug.
